CH: 47 I LOVE YOU

His eyes pierced through my soul and my breath started increasing as he started coming closer to me and said, "did you thought I would go to Eddie, and date him after telling you that I love you."

My breath hitched, and my heart skipped a beat when I heard him say those words, "did he realized that he confessed me that day... wait... This means that he remembered everything, including my proposal, his confession about his past, and... and our kiss." I screamed in my head by the thought of him remembering everything.

"Yes, I recalled everything I spoke that day, and did that day, including my confession of my past, and our kiss." He said looking at my extremely confused face.

"Did you just read my mind?" I asked as the words he spoke were the exact answer to what I was thinking in my head. He smiled at me and said, "You are too easy to read mason, you are more likely to be an open book. But there are times when it gets too hard to find, out what you are thinking."

I looked towards my lap as I felt guilt rising in my body and a tint of embarrassment flushed my head. I fiddled with the hem of my T-shirt as I tried to find an answer for him, which was quite hard for me.

"Don't worry mason, I am over it now. I was angry and confused and frustrated when I first got to know that you helped Eddie to propose me, as I thought you just pushed me away as if I am just an object for you, I thought you played with my feelings and used my heart. But then slowly I realized my thoughts were getting negative just because of the heat of the anger which was in my head at that instant. And that's why I needed time to think, to calm myself, to relax, and think about what is wrong and what is right. I knew this wasn't something that big, but I needed time to process everything. And after a few days, I recalled the memory of the night when I got drunk. And that was the moment I realized how was everything working, why you did that, but still mason I want to hear it from you..."

He said and I could feel his eyes landing on me. I tilted my head to meet his gaze and after making eye contact, and gathering some energy I spoke. "I did that because I wanted to give Eddie hyung a chance; because I wasn't sure that you liked me, but you confessed to me on the same day, and then next morning I decided to talk to you about that but you already forgot everything. So, I decided to let you go for once thinking that the words you spoke weren't your words, but that was the alcohol which made you speak them."

His eyes softened as he looked at me and sat down, on his knees cupping my face in his hands and said, "that wasn't the alcohol speaking mason, that was me who was speaking those words, that was my heart which was pouring out its emotion, maybe I wasn't aware of what I was doing but none of those words were a lie or spoken in someone's influence." A smile crept on my face as I saw his sincerity and love in his voice.

"I am sorry hyung," I said, looking deep into his eyes. "But I want an answer now mason." He said again making me confused again, "you have to answer me now that, you love me or not." He continued.

"I already told you that hyung," I said as a tint of red flushed my cheeks and warmth started filling my cheeks. "But I want to hear them in your words, right now." He demanded.

I stayed silent for a while as I tried to pick up the proper words, before speaking them aloud to him. I finally took a long breath and said, "Hyung, I don't know when you became such an important part of my life, and I don't know when it became so hard for me to let go of someone, for the first time after my parents went away. I never thought I will find a person like that other than Krystal. But here you are making me feel all loved and blessed, hyung. Filling my heart with love. I love you... I love you so much that maybe my words aren't enough to tell you that I love you, the most in the world neither as a brother nor as a friend, but as a lover do, I want you to be a part of my family. I LOVE YOU HYUNG. You made me open up my heart, which was locked from the past 11 years." I looked in his eyes, which were shining now because of the tears which were stored in them. I moved my hands to hold his hands and once again repeated, "I love you hyung."

He smiled at me and said, "Thank you mason for giving me this love." And in the next second, I was wrapped in his arms, in his embrace which I missed the most. I smiled in the hug and let my hands wrap around his neck as he secured my waist.

After taking in all his warmth I missed, I parted the hug and saw him smiling ear to ear, "now let's come and have some food, I have to leave for work within an hour." I said after looking at the wall clock.

He nodded his head and intertwined his fingers with mine and helped me to stand up and moved towards the dining table. I looked at him briefly as he plated the food after heating it in the microwave. He hadn't changed a bit like I thought he would, even though he looked a bit weak, but, still he had the glow in his eyes he had earlier.

"Let's eat now, and after that, I will drop you to your work as I usually did." He said as he gave me a smile, which resulted in me to smile too. I nodded my head and started to chew my food-stealing glances of his face.

"We are finally together, I can't believe it, but wait... we just proposed he still didn't ask me to be his boyfriend officially, but still he said that he loves me, but are we in a relationship." I thought in my head continuing to eat the food which was on my plate. "Should I ask him, about this or should I wait to ask him before. Will it get awkward if I'll ask this?" My chain of thoughts was broken when I heard Jacob speak, "I don't know should I ask this because I am sure about the answer, but..." "Is he going to ask me to be his boyfriend?" I thought in my head waiting for him to complete his question.

"But still I want to know that when was the last time you cleaned this house, this house looking like a complete mess." He continued as I facepalmed myself and looked at him and said, "I cleaned it approximately 4 days ago." I replied sounding disappointed.

"Hey! What's with your tone, did I say something wrong. I just wanted to ask when you cleaned the house last time." He said, knowing that I was disappointed with his question.

"I thought you would ask me to be your boyfriend." I blurted out and covered my mouth as soon as I realized that I just spoke my thoughts aloud.

"I thought you will understand it after my proposal that I want you to be my boyfriend, but I didn't know you were such a dumbass." He said as he smiled looking at me while I looked at my plate all embarrassed. "Hey, who you are calling a dumbass," I spoke as he completed his words.

"You, you silly." He said, giggling a bit, then again spoke, "okay! So let me officially ask to you now because your dumb brain can't understand something... will you be my boyfriend mason."

I quickly nodded my head like a 5-year-old kid would do. He chuckled and moved his hand towards my face and caressed my cheek and spoke, "I would love to have a boyfriend like you, a silly one." He said as I again got annoyed playfully as I heard him chuckle.
